Tree Tour Visits 215

This year Local Enhancement and Appreciation of Forests (LEAF) teamed up with the Toronto Public Space Committee (TPSC) to offer an exciting line up of tree tours through neighbourhoods in Toronto. As a special treat, the tour chose our busy urban area to take a look at some examples of the kind of green you can find on your very own doorstep, even if you live at Queen and Spadina. The tour started in the roof garden at 401 Richmond and made its way up Spadina to the Robertson Building with a few stops in between. 

The group is interested in increasing awareness among the public of how vital the urban forest is and the ways that we can all help it to thrive. They are currently working on creating a virtual tour on their website www.treetours.to. You can also find out about upcoming tree tours. You never know, one might be coming to your neighbourhood soon!
